I have been quite satisfied with Kemperle Paint in Waterbury, CT.

They=E2=80=99ve matched several colors for me over the past 10 years and got a go=
od match in a spray can.

=20

I=E2=80=99m not sure how you would work with them since it is advisable to bring =
them an actual paint sample as well as the official Paint Code.

You can call and ask them; number is (203) 756-7081

I recall being able to order a can of spray paint from a place from a paint=
 code.  I think it was called Tower Paints in the midwest somewhere.  I'm no=
t finding them online.  Does anyone have any other suggestions?

I had these guys send me a can of the 106 Commodore Blue for my Alpine, and=
 I believe they sent my dad a can of 86 Forrest Green.

Now I need it for our Elva race car.

Many wholesalers who supply auto body shops can do this.  If you live in 
or near a large city do some web searching.  The problem of course is 
that the places may have no problem doing this for a regular customer 
who goes through thousands of dollars a month in paints, thinners and 
such but a random guy off the street?  It's been a while since I've done 
much painting, but there was a place in SLC, Superior Automotive, that 
worked with me on several occasions.

You might try this place:

I would suggest a local source also. I'm near a town of 50,000 and there is=
 an auto paint supply place here that will mix a spray can for you either w=
ith a paint code or a scan of a clean body panel. They do it for anyone tha=
t walks in the door.

APS Tower, Wisconsin, that's them!

I do acknowledge that ordering from them a can of paint won't hardly ever
match what's actually on the car.  But, I have to say, their Commodore Blue
can was spot on.  And sadly, when I gave the can to the shop to paint my
Alpine, they did not use Tower and mixed the paint themselves.  Don't get
me wrong.  The car came out great, and I do really like the color.
However, it's not quite as good as Tower's Commodore Blue.
